This Hygienic Panty For Female Dogs Is Game Boy Color Ready... Wait, What

We've been through dozens of hygienic panties for female dogs in our time on this earth, but we've yet to see one this special. According to the ass end of this particular pair, designed for the unspayed bitch in your life, they're compatible with Game Boy Color. Handy, in the case of needing to play some Metal Gear Ghost Babel while taking Muffin for a walk during her time with "the curse." To be perfectly clear, the text does read that the pantsu are "atible with AMEBOY COLOR" so don't toss your legacy handhelds out just yet.

To answer your question, Adam, we have absolutely no idea WTF this is all about. Theories are certainly welcome.

It's National Video Games Day Apparently

Happy National Video Games Day! I know you've all been eagerly awaiting this day, reserving a day off of work or school to spend a lazy afternoon participating in our favorite hobby. I am sure you've got some massive parties planned, so be sure to send us photos of how you celebrate the holiday with your friends and loved ones! Yeah, we had no idea either, but Holiday Insights and American Greetings indicate that September 12th is NVGD. You'd think someone would have mentioned it to us.
Celebrate National Video Games Day by playing video games. If you are off from school (or if you are a big kid off from work), make this a marathon day for video games. Better still, invite a few friends and hold a competition. Just make certain that you have enough controllers.
That's the blurb from Holiday Insights, which goes on to state that they have no record of the origin of the holiday or that indeed it even exists. Whatever. American Greetings needs gamer money too you know. More »

Elf Bowling: The Movie... The What?

Our coverage of the Elf Bowling series is admittedly quite light, but I'm sure most of you have at least cursory awareness of the PC, Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance games. If not, I believe the Wikipedia description "In Elf Bowling, Santa gets revenge on his striking elf employees by using them as bowling pins" is fairly succinct. More »

Get That Xbox 360 Pimped John Now

Oops. I'm a little late on this one. A few weeks ago, we told you about Roto-Rooter's Pimped Out John sweepstakes which features a Kohler Cimarron Complete Solution toilet decked out with all the candies, including a cistern-mounted Xbox 360—sadly, the Core model. Since that eMachines laptop isn't even remotely suited for gaming, I suggest reselling that, then grabbing the hard drive as well as a few games. More »

The Bizarre Light Up UMD Holder

What's so bizarre about this Farmer-manufactured Universal Media Disc Vertical Stand? Not that implication that one could possibly have the 24 UMDs required to fill every slot, but the fact that it lights up. For what reason? Maybe it's for power failures, those stormy times when one finds themselves with no electricity and nothing to do. More »

The Mortal Kombat Toilet Seat

Bear down folks, 'cause it's toilet seat time again. Uber tipster Jane, who should really be doing something other than trolling eBay for such things, lets us know that the man responsible for the Master Chief crapper cover is back at it. This time, it's the famous Mortal Kombat dragon logo, woodburned and hand painted. Other fun features: comes with brass hinges and screws, looks AWESOME, and makes a great gift. Or so he says.

WTF?

With a title like that, logic says WTF has to suck. The D3 game, also called Work Time Fun or Baito Hell in Japan, isn't getting the best critical reviews. Some of the negative love is probably due to an unnecessarily complex mini game system. Players start out with four mini-games and must "buy" new games from in-game paychecks. Unlike the short and sweet Wario games, the WTF minis are meant to be played for several minutes at a time, and that sounds like no fun at all. What. The. Fuck. More »

Work Time Tran?

Before I saw Here Comes Dr. Tran and Roybertito's 60-Second Short at Spike and Mike's animation festival at Nerd Prom (alias San Diego Comic Con) last year, I thought the old convention of people literally clutching each other while laughing was made-up. More »

Self-Serving Gamelife "Controversy" Spinning Out of Control

Ugh. I hesitated posting this, as this is the sort of non-news that really gets under my skin, but since Kotaku was name-checked in this video, I felt obligated. Profiling the token girl from Gamelife, the show built on a foundation of pointing and laughing, the video goes on to discuss how "rumors and speculation about her allegedly sordid past ... threaten to topple her from her Gamelife throne". Apparently, posting gory pictures of internet celebrities could possibly "mar the face of the entire gaming industry". Right. More »

The DS Sucks, Folks. Look It Up.

This video editorial from Jon of Talking With Jon fame clearly outlines why the Nintendo DS is inferior to the Sony PSP. For instance, can you use the DS as a PlayStation 3 controller? No. Is the DS widescreen, the future of gaming? No. Does it have the gigabytes? No. Can you play it without plugging it into the wall? Apparently not. Pretty damning evidence. More »

Am I Looking at Activision or Porn?

Click over to Activision's game roster and click on a title rated 'M.' You'll have to enter a valid credit card to get to the game's web page. Gamecloud has an article on this new strange practice. Is the web page for Doom 3 Collector's Edition so profoundly ripe with porn and blood that I need to enter my credit card just to check out the site? If nothing else, this policy is going to deter me from going to Activision games' pages, not feel safer because my non-existent children need a credit card number to check out the Quake III: Team Arena home page.
